Natural Support for Hot Flashes and Night Sweats (for menopausal and the years before and after)
More than 20 million women in North America are going through menopause right now. Soon millions more will join them. While it means relief from monthly periods, menopause often comes with unwelcome symptoms.
In some women these symptoms can start early, even at 30 years of age. Based on current scientific research and our clinical experience, we have developed a formula that helps women through pre-menopause, menopause as well as the sudden changes that come with hysterectomy, while they avoid the risks that come with hormone replacement therapy. While the body prepares for this change, hormone levels fluctuate. As a woman nears fifty (earlier in some cases) the ovaries no longer produce high levels of estrogen and progesterone; however, the pituitary continues to secrete follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH) and Prolactin.
Raised levels of FSH and LH, decreased levels of estrogen and progesterone and sudden fluctuations of the hormones can make for some very unpleasant symptoms, especially hot flashes and night sweats.
MenoSense™, formulated by Dr. Michael Murray and Lorna Vanderhaeghe, is an all natural formula designed to provide support for menopausal symptoms, especially anxiety, hot flashes and night sweats. It is non-estrogenic and can be safely used with breast and other cancer treatments. Each ingredient chosen exerts a balancing effect on hormones and reduces unpleasant symptoms.
Menopause - a life passage or a disease?
In many cultures women look forward to menopause, primarily as a relief from childbearing. In these cultures the symptoms of menopause are much less frequent. Rather than viewing menopause as a natural life passage, North Americans medical practitioners often treat it as a disease, so hormone replacement therapy (HRT) was the first treatment of choice.
However, HRT is not without risk and is not a cure - it only addresses symptoms while increasing the risk of gallstones, blood clots, heart disease and some cancers, and its use has recently fallen into disgrace.
This formula is ideal for those women who want to explore more natural, less risky alternatives to HRT. The herbs and nutrients found in MenoSense™ are safe and effective. When this formula is combined with attention to diet and exercise, it can help balance hormonal irregularities and ease women through this most important life passage.
